Arlie’s freshman LP, ‘BREAK THE CURSE’, is an unabashedly joyful, artfully minded indie-pop album conceived by front man Nathaniel Banks and co-produced by band members Ryan Savage and Adam Lochemes.Taking flight from where their 2018 debut EP ‘Wait’ left off, the full-length album finds Arlie drawing on timeless pop influences to make music that is at once nostalgic and forward-thinking.Laced with unforgettable hooks, deliberately naive sentiments, and winking self-awareness set against a genuine grappling with the weight of existential despair, ‘BREAK THE CURSE’ is ultimately a journey centered around the theme of transcending societal, cultural, and generational traumas – ‘breaking the curse’ in order to blossom into one’s true authentic self and genuinely connect with others.
